Some Exciting Benefits of Lemon Water

Do you drink 8-16 ounces of water each morning upon waking? Or, are you one of those tough individuals who ignores this easy, proven health and wellness tip?

Be honest now. We are not criticizing here. (Well, maybe a little.)

But seriously, how much easier a request can one make? Upon waking, drink some water! Come on now!

Some Exciting Benefits of Lemon Water

Ok, ok…we are done. We will hold out hope, even if you don’t immediately move to lemon water each morning after reading this, you will at least, be sure to get your glass of plain ole water in first thing.

With the water rant over, you really, really should consider making 8-10 ounces of lemon water a part of your morning routine.

While we choose to have ours hot (one lemon squeezed into our lemon/ginger tea), you can do it however you’d like. 

It’s Actually Quite Good

We get it…water is quite boring. We all know just how important it is to drink, but it lacks any excitement at all, so obviously, most people turn to far more enticing refreshments.

And, truth be told, if you are anything like us, you may initially frown at the thought of drinking lemon water (yuck…sour, right). But, good news, like most things, when done right, it really can be quite good, and you will actually look forward to it.

Lemons actually adds a nice touch of flavor to the water and since you should be getting 8-16oz of water in first thing in the morning anyway, this is really not a bad option at all.

Our Lemon Water Preparation

As we noted above our preparation preference is simple, tastes great and provides even greater benefit than just lemon alone.

We heat 8-10 ounces of water, throw one of the aforementioned tea bags in, squeeze a single lemon into the mix and let sit for just a few minutes before beginning to sip. That’s all.

In just 1-2 minutes of time you will have added some excellent health benefits to your routine and kicking your day off right. 

The Benefits of Lemon Water

Seriously though, we promise, our suggestions here are not just about flavoring your water, or tricking you into drinking more. There really are some very good benefits to this mix. And, if you’re looking for an extremely easy way to add to your health and wellness rituals, this is certainly one.
